The office of the Osun State Governor, Rauf Aregbesola, at the State Secretariat, Osogbo, was gutted by fire on Monday. Our correspondent gathered that the fire started from one of the air conditioners which was in the governor’s office but the governor was not inside when the fire started. A source said the fire could not be put off immediately because the security doors leading to the office could not be opened.
